The production on this project is ELITE level, beats on Red Button, Stories about my Brother stand out in particular. Only downside is Drakes lyricism. A lot of it is corny. The shoe fits for multiple minutes too long. My favorite song was Red Button. My least favorites were Evil Ways and The Shoe Fits.
Some of the production on this album is smooth as butter, I love the vocals on songs like Lucid Girl, and Waiting on The Right Time. Favorite tracks were Losing Side Of Love, I'm So Glad I Found You Baby, and Somebody Knew. Least Favorite were Live for You and In The Mirror.
Major step back from Vultures 1. Kanye's lyrical ability somehow gets worse from the original. AI use makes some songs awful. Most features are uninspiring. Few good songs are really carried on the back of the production or Ty Dolla Sign. My favorite songs were River, Field Trip, and Slide. Least favorite songs were Husband, Forever, Fried, Sky City, and My Soul.
Looking back on the last 2 years of Ye's music this is a subtle surprise. There is great production throughout the entire project with my favorites coming from STARS, BACK TO ME, BURN, and PROBLEMATIC. Is the lyrical ability close to the same from past projects, absolutely not. Is there still moments with lyrical ability, yes. Ty Dolla Sign also comes thru and saves alot of these tracks. Favorites songs are BURN, DO IT, BACK TO ME, and PAID. Least favorite are HOODRAT, KING, KEYS TO MY ... read more
No songs absolutely blew me away but I didn't think any of them were poor either. My favorite tracks are "LOVE U, PRAISE, MELATONIN, HOLLYWOOD, SOBER."
Album puts out a good krunk vibes, only critique is some of the beats seem too similar.
